Female Strophopteryx fasciata (Mottled Willowfly) Stonefly Adult View 5 PicturesSeveral stoneflies of this species were the first adult insects I found in 2004 when I started this site. The hatch was sparse but lasted a good part of the day, and I noted a few good rises despite the early season cold. They ended up struggling on the water's surface fairly often.

Male Strophopteryx fasciata (Mottled Willowfly) Stonefly Adult View 2 PicturesThis male died overnight before I had the chance to photograph him, so his abdomen is shorter than it should be because it shriveled a bit.
